Armani Prive Cologne Spray Pierre de Lune Giorgio Armani for women and men

Armani prive fragrances are not like
Tom ford private blend collection which i prefer
As a niche house for uncommon fragrances.

I can't deny that there are two scents
From Armani prive collection blended very well
And they are unique fragrances like pierre de lune
And cure amysist , I have sniffed Pierre de Lune
At Harvey nicols today and it was very comfortable
Scent and I can call it "the heaven scent ",light,
Bright and elegant at the same time.


My rate is 9/10

I love it at first, sweet and warm but then it goes soapy. Alas.

It could be me but this is exactly the same as CDG's Avignon, just less of "burned wood" in it.

9/10

INCREDIBLE. I can see this becoming my signature scent (male).

So lovely ,the violet is beautiful and it is subtle without being weak.

I really like the combination for this scent because of its special twist, having the floral contribution of lavender plus violet as its main floral note. This is one of the best floral woody musk scent I have ever tried. I got this scent after my short trip in Dubai. The Duty Free shops were really good there and choices were enormous compared to here. I happen to come across this scent because I like how the bottle looked like plus the flacon was shaped like stones. I had this collection of stones in my condominium and I just thought that it was exquisite. My fascination was bolstered with the true smell of this scent because I fell in love with it instantly.
I like how tremendously upstaging the start was. I felt there was already hints of lavender and violet combined during the first few sprays of the scent. I would say it would border between humid and floral if I were to describe the scent. The freshness of lavender scent delivered a pure uplifting experience for me. It was like expecting that the rest of the scent will be very good which it was. Then violet was just gladdening if I were to say it. There are hints of its floral smell which tends to contribute to the aromatic features of lavender but solely I would say lavender made that influence alone. I did not find any reluctance in the smell
and I like the teaming effect of the beginning. The start is literally a genuine warmth. The humid effect of lavender conforms more to the floral expectations rather than being too grassy. I did not feel the effect of its grassy attitude. I also like
how it was chronicled to have a floral smell in the scent rather than giving just a mere grassy aroma. Then there were scents of woody nuances when the scent reached dry down. Basically it was like sandalwood because it was a bit sweet regardless of its
being woody. There are woody floral musk which is more “for males” rather than a unisex scent. This is a unisex scent which so much appreciation to both gender. I truly believe this is uniquely unisex. There are hints which makes it manly however
it cannot be said to be exclusively “for men” because the beginning and even till dry down, violet and lavender kept clinging. These two gave a feminine effect on the smell. The scent has frequent light floral smell till it ends. I like the fact that
its smell was beautifully balanced giving credence to a unisex smell. This has good longevity too. I like the effect after five hours because it tends to be so floral but still retaining small hints of woody texture. It was just flawless when it ended.

I got lots of violet and no iris. On me, this creates a subtle "lipstick" note, and it reminds me of L'Artisan Drole de Roses, without the rose note. Very nice, just not for me.

I have checked in many perfume websites this cologne but i have not found it. www.worldSfragrances.com does not answers to my request nor other websites. Do any knows why?

This is a fantastic website you have here. The online community will greatly benefit from your efforts. Please when you have time do check out my site for insights on Perfume Cologne and how to get discount perfume gifts sets for less.

Thanks Sara! I was trying unsuccessfully to find the cinnamon. On the Armani beauty website, however, they do indeed name the ingredient as Cassia, not Cassie. I have emailed them for a clarification.

I do agree with Veruska that it is flat in a way, as Iris-focused scents can be (Think of Hiris by Hermes). In this simple, dowdy, and decidedly unisex scent I find Violet Leaves, powdery Violet Flower and Iris (I note Iris only in the form of Orris, the aged root used as a fixative; I get no fresh Iris). Orris can create a soft powdery floral, as well as woodsy fixative notes. I do not classify this a a Floral scent in modern terms. The Armani site deems it "Sensual, Floral, & Woody". It is a little dreary, but very comforting, like a rainy day.

Interestingly, PdL's drydown is eerily similar to a bottle of vintage 40s Narcisse Noir pure parfum that came in a coffret I received as a gift, although the two bear few note similarities. I will do more research.

Thank you for visiting Giorgio Armani on the Web.

A very flat and boring iris mimosa combo, made in a sweet green way. It's extremely pricey and extremely bland!

Hi there! :) Love your site. You might want to know that it is *not* cassia (china cinnamon) but Cassie - mimosa or acacia farnesiana. Cassie is used with orris and violet in powder notes and many violet/iris fragrances.
